Asks Strict Traffic Law Enforcement A call for strict enforcement of traffic laws has gone out to sheriffs, chief of police and mayors of Iowa from the Iowa State Safety council over the signature of its president, Harry C. Brown of Mason City.

"In the majority of cases," he stated, "one or more violations of traffic regulations are responsible for accidents. If, the citizenry knew that for every violation for which they are arrested there would be quick and just punishment, there would be fewer violators and likewise there would be fewer accidents. "Since you have the power of arrest and the traffic law enforcement of your community is in your hands, I would like to call upon you to exert every effort toward the prosecuton of all traffic violators so we may reduce the accident toll in this state. "It is true that a certain per cent of the population does not favor law enforcement and would rather not have strict law enforcement. However, if justice is carried out in all cases and we can show the people of the state that there is a reduction in fatal accidents and injury accidents, we will have won the majority of the people over to our side."
